Ann Siang Road

Description:

• Sandwiched between the Central Business District and ethnic neighborhood of Chinatown is a well-known street heralded for its quirky hodgepodge of shops and eateries. Lined with refurbished shop-houses reminiscent of British colonial times, Ann Siang Road boasts a strong portfolio of one-of-a-kind establishments that are trailblazers in the creative industry. For those who are fashion-forward and interested in art and design, head to Asylum and stock up on a wide array of design books, magazines and fashionable garbs like limited edition sneakers. For bookworms, head over to the quaint independent bookstore, Books Actually for your fix. To top off your trip, dine at the few French establishments here like The Patissier or have drinks at the rooftop bar and Mediterranean cuisine at The Screening Room while watching an art-house flick. - Aisha
